I seem to recall asking before but I might have just thought about asking, but are there any reliable European web stores that sell Nuarl earbuds?

Sure. Depends on the savings I suppose. But 2 years in tws terms is like 5 years in normal tech. It’s moving at blazing speed. In the few occasions I’ve opted for the older model I’ve almost always regretted it.I'm somewhat agreeing because the Bluetooth tech is improving drastically and I can tell how damn fast earbuds have gotten to connect with phones on BT 5.2, I have three earbuds with 5.2 and two with... i'm not sure, 5.0 or 5.1, and most if not all of the 5.2 earbuds are already connected by the time i've gotten them in my ears, while the MT2's need a couple of seconds before it's connected.
But I feel like sound is the thing that has progressed the least on average, and if an older earbud is known to sound good and are offered at a discounted price I see few reasons to snag them if they're not known to suffer from some specific issue. If sound happens to be the main priority, of course.
Otherwise yes, agreed. Especially since you can find cheaper buds today that rival the performance of more expensive buds from just a year (ish) ago.

Panasonic RZ-S500 are currently just $40 on Woot. I remember people here mentioning these had really good ANC when they first came out...

I know, my posts are missing the hype-mark by 3-6 months .. and why the heck do I keep buying new stuff when I already have endgame buds like the Bose and Sony and Jabra ... well, my excuse this time is that my teenager is asking for ANC buds and I am sure not giving him anything north of 200$ when I know how often he 'misplaces' stuff ... so .. after some research I thought about the Soundpeats T2 .. but checking more thoroughly it seems to be a bit of a gamble if one gets a good one or a bad apple (neither pun nor relation) ... scarbir describes the ANC sound glitch issues best and there are reviews on amazon / youtube sharing the same sentiment ...
anyhoo .. I was actually super surprised to find a shop that has soundpeat stuff here locally (H1 on pre-order) AND the price was even better than AliExpres (by a bit, probably the same after coupon magic) .. so, now I am testing for a few days if these are good and if not, I have to test how well 'warranty' or 'return' works here.
But overall, oh wow, they are very comparable with the Jabra 85T in fit .. the ANC is impressive, not only for that price segment ... and the sound has that nice kinda dark, warm, snuggly blanket feel to it which I really like .. so .. I might keep'em ??? no, if they work without problems, the teen gets it

FYI Panasonic is going to offload all consumer audio to the Technics brand, at least from what I've been told. So there may be some good deals coming up on other Panasonic items too.

Anyone with the Klipsch T5 II ANC know how to lower the volume for voice prompts?

I did too. Complete impulse buy at this price for a set that has an app and 50 levels of ANC intensity to choose from (whatever that means )

Will give that a go and see how it goesHave you tried disabling (or enabling, whichever is the opposite of what it is set to right now on your phone) "Absolute Volume" in your developer's settings?

Not sure you can do that with the voice on the buds. I never really notice it.Anyone with the Klipsch T5 II ANC know how to lower the volume for voice prompts?

Mine actually just arrived (I had ordered it yesterday), really fast shipping I guess. Needs to charge before using as per instructions. I think the batteries came completely drained. The case is very tiny which is quite nice. The housings are a little thicker and do stick out, though so do my Jabra.I did too.
